with even greater success in the
future than it has in the past. At
tention is directed' to the notice
of copartnership published else

Veritable Calendar Fiends.
Edgefield has scores of calendar
"?ends*'-men and women, boys
and girls-who seem to have a
mania for collecting calendars.
But the new crop of calendars aro
60 beautiful who can blame them?
We have never before seeu so
mauy pretty calendars. The banks
and nearly ail nf the locs.1 mer
chants are scattering them broad
cast. The insurance companies
used to have a monopoly in dis*?

Sedgefield Rifles Make Charming
Hosts.
At about the ninth hour oe
Thursday evening last the Edge
field Rifles and a number of iuvi
ted friends assembled in the ar
mory, where . they passed several
hours mostdelightfully.Capt. Col
lett formed his company and
drilled hi9 men for a ?hort while,
in order for the visitors to' see
'hat progress they are making in
military affairs. The veiy excel
lent manner in which the mem
bers of the company drilled was
indeed a surprise to all who wit
nessed them. A surprise, because
a very large per cent of the men
were a few short months ago the
orudest and most inexperienced
material, from a military, itand
poiut, that it is possible to find.
They are, however, well officered,
and if the men in the ranks will
take as great interest and pride in
the company as those who sh apo
and direct its affairs, the Eden
field Rifles will before many
months be one of the leading mi
litia companies in the state.
Something more than a drill was
provided for the pleasure and en
tertainment of the guests - on
Thursday evening. A princely oys
er supper was provided by the
p.oldier ?J boys. Both etewed
and fried oyeters, with olives,sau
ces, pickles and coffee were de
lightfully sarved iu great abun
dance. The supply appeared to be
equal to the demands of a regi
ment, while but little more than
one company was present. Soon
after the supper the fragrant fumes
of fine cigars filled the ball. The
cigars, like the other good things
of the evening, were also supplied
from the treasury of the company.

give you the benefit of our advantages in handling

own farm and our stable is new, large and well ven
tilated.
We keep the stables well disinfected and clean,
so that when a horse or mule goes out of our stable
they are not at all infected and are ready for use

them prompt attention when sick.

advantages.
